The proposed amendment requested the ww.duke-energy.com
U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission August 9, 2011 Page 2 NRC's approval for the Duke Energy Cyber Security Plan which complies with the requirement of 10 CFR 73.54.
In order to support review of the LAR, the NRC issued a request for additional information by letters dated February 8, 2011 (Reference 3) and March 16, 2011 (Reference 5). Duke Energy provided the 30-day responses on March 7, 2011 (Reference 4) and April 15, 2011 (Reference 6). On August 2, 2011, during a conference call between NRC and Duke Energy representatives, the NRC requested that Duke Energy submit a proposed change to revise the FOL Physical Protection license condition to incorporate the language as agreed upon.
Attachments 1, 2, and 3 provide marked changes for Oconee Units 1, 2, and 3; McGuire Units 1 and 2; and Catawba Units 1 and 2 respectively. No other changes have been made to the previous submittals regarding the Cyber Security Plan.
There are no commitments associated with this submittal.
The information provided in this response does not impact the Significant Hazards Consideration conclusions provided in the August 16, 2010, submittal (Reference 2).
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.91, a copy of this proposed amendment is being provided to the appropriate officials of the States of North Carolina and South Carolina.

Part 70; is subject to all applicable provisions of the Act and to the rules, regulations, and orders of the Commission now or hereafter in effect; and is subject to the additional conditions specified or incorporated below:
A. Maximum Power Level The licensee is authorized to operate the facility at steady state reactor core power levels not in excess of 2568 megawatts thermal.
B. Technical Specifications The Technical Specifications contained in Appendix A, as revised through Amendment No. 376, are hereby incorporated in the license. The licensee shall operate the facility in accordance with the Technical Specifications.
C. This license is subject to the following antitrust conditions:
Applicant makes the commitments contained herein, recognizing that bulk power supply arrangements between neighboring entities normally tend to serve the public interest. In addition, where there are net benefits to all participants, such arrangements also serve the best interests of each of the participants. Among the benefits of such transactions are increased electric system reliability, a reduction in the cost of electric power, and minimization of the environmental effects of the production and sale of electricity.
Any particular bulk power supply transaction may afford greater benefits to one participant than to another. The benefits realized by a small system may be proportionately greater than those realized by a larger system. The relative benefits to be derived by the parties from a proposed transaction, however, should not be controlling upon a decision with respect to the desirability of participating in the transaction. Accordingly, applicant will enter into proposed bulk power transactions of the types hereinafter described which, on balance, provide net benefits to applicant. There are net benefits in a transaction if applicant recovers the cost of the transaction (as defined in ¶1 (d) hereof) and there is no demonstrable net detriment to applicant arising from that transaction.
